Grails 3.0.1 Issue connecting to Oracle database

Question

How should I configure in the application.yml file or anywhere else so my .m2\\repository\\com\\oracle\\ojdbc14\\11.1.0\\ojdbc14-11.1.0.jar is in the classpath. Below is my error:

:bootRun
ERROR org.apache.tomcat.jdbc.pool.ConnectionPool - Unable to create initial connections of pool.
java.sql.SQLException: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver

Answer 1

I had a similar problem (Grails 3.0.2 + Oracle 12c). The guys in my post helped me fix it: How-to: Grails 3.0.2 + Oracle Database 12c? . Credits should of course go to them.

Just Paste your ojdbc14-11.1.0.jar to these 2 directory

• C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.8.0_121\\jre\\lib\\ext
• C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre1.8.0_121\\lib\\ext
